BY   NOAM    WEBSTER,   1. 1..  ». 


NEW- YORK: 
HUNTINGTON  AND  SAVAGE, 

^JG    PEAKL-STREET. 


Entered  according  to  the  Act  of  Congress  in  the  year  one  thousand  eigh* 
hundred  and  thirty-three,  by  Noah  Webster,  LL.  D.  in  the  Clerk's  Office  r  * 
the  District  Court  of  Connecticut. 


The  annexed  Testimonials  of  the  merit  of  Dr.  Webster's  Books  are  selected 
from  a  great  number  of  recommendations  received  by  the  Publishers. 

The  following  is  subscribed  by  more  than  ONE  HUNDRED  MEMBERS  OF  THE  LAST 
CONGRESS: 

''The  subscribers  highly  appreciate  Dr.  Webster's  purpose  and  attempt  to  improve  the 
English  language,  by  rendering  its  orthograpny  more  simple,  regular  and  uniform,  and  by 
removing  difficulties  arising  from  its  anomalies.  Tt  is  very  desirable  that  one  standard 
dictionary  should  be  used  by  the  numerous  millions  of  people  who  are  to  inhabit  the  vast 
extent  of  territory  belonging  to  the  United  States  ;  as  the  use  of  such  a  standard  may  prevent 
the  formation  of  dialects  In  states  remote  from  each  other,  and  impress  upon  the  language 
uniformity  and  stability.  It  is  desirable  also  that  the  acquisition  of  the  language  should  be 
rendered  easy,  not  only  to  our  own  citizens,  but  to  foreigners  who  wish  to  gain  access  to  the 
rich  stores  of  science  which  it  contains.  We  rejoice  that  the  American  Dictionary  bids  fair 
to  become  such  a  standard,  and  we  sincerely  hope  that  the  author's  elementary  books  for 
primary  schools  and  academies  will  commend  themselves  to  the  general  use  of  our  fellow 
citizens."

IttLES    FOR    SPELLING.     J 


T.ie  eeneral  rule  which  I  have  observed  in  settling  the  orthography  of  <5erfatn  cTasste  of 
wot  Is,  is  Uniformity  in  words  of  like  formation  ;  that  is,  a  rule  without  an  exception  J  for 
exci  ptions  give  to  learners  more  trouble  than  rules. 

EXAMPLES. 

1 .  Favor,  candor,  ardor,  labor,  color,  clamor,  parlor,  error,  tenor,  honor,  splendor,  rigor, 
arnur,  vigor,  vapor,  valor,  inferior,  superior,  &c,  and  the  derivatives  in  the  same  manner 
witl  out  m,  that  the  pupil  need  not  be  troubled  with  the  u  in  labour,  and  the  omission  of  it  hi 
laborious  ;  u  in  inferiour,  and  not  in  inferiority,  &c. 

2.  Music,  public,  cubic,  and  all  similar  words  from  the  Greek  and  Latin,  and  some  formed 
in  analogy  with  them,  without  k.  Most  of  these  admit  the  terminations,  al,  and  ally ;  as 
muf  cal,  musically ;  and  it  is  inconvenient  to  add  k  to  the  primitive  word,  musick,  and  be 
obli:  ed  to  omit  it  in  musical.  Besides,  the  mark  used  in  my  books  on  c,  when  it  has  the  use 
of  k    supersedes  the  necessity  of  k. 

E  iceptions. — Words  which  may  be  used  as  verbs,  retain  k,  on  account  of  the  past  tense 
and  participles;  as  traffick,  trafficked;  frolick,  frolicking. 

VA  ords  of  Teutonic  and  Gothic  origin,  having  never  lost  k,  and  not  admitting  an  additional 
syll;  ble,  retain  /•• ;  as  hemlock,  fetlock,  wedlock.  Monosyllables  are  also  excepted ;  as  sick, 
lick   lock  ;  most  of  which  may  be  used  as  verbs 

3.  Defense,  expense,  offense,  pretense,  recompense,  with  * ;  not  solely  because  the  Latin 
orig  rials  have  s,  but  because  the  derivatives,  defensive,  expensive,  offensive,  pretension, 
recc  rnpensimr,  must  be  written  with  5. 

4.-  Blamable,  abatable,  debatable,  movable,  ratable,  salable,  reconcilable,  and  all  similar 
woi  Is  without  e,  except  after  c  and  g ;  as  noticeable,  changeable. 

B  'fall,  miscall,  install,  recall,  forestall,  enthrall,  retain  the  II ;  for  if  one  I  is  omitted  in  the 
prin  itive  word,  it  must  be  restored  in  the  participles,  befalling,  &c. ;  and  it  is  a  general  rule 
in  t  ic  language,  that  a  before  11,  has  its  broad  sound;  (mall  and  shall  excepted.)  Hence,  if 
wri  ten  befal,  miscal,  the  pronunciation  may  be  easily  mistaken.  For  this  reason  11  should 
be  r  itained  in  the  nouns  installment,  enthrallment. 

6.  Foretell,  distill,  instill,  fulfill,  retain  11  in  the  primitive,  for  it  must  be  retained  in  the 
pari  ciples  and  other  derivatives;  as  foretelling,  distiller,  &c.  In  this  case  the  pupil  has  only 
to  1<  am  that  the  spelling  of  the  original  words,  tell,  still,  fill,  is  retained  in  all  the  derivatives. 

7.  Connection,  deflection,  inflection,  reflection,  follow  the  spelling  of  the  verbs,  connect, 
defl  «t,  inflect,  reflect.  Complex  and  reflex  are  considered  as  the  primitives  of  a  different 
ana  ogy,  and  the  common  spelling  is  retained. 

8.  All  verbs,  formed  from  the  Latin  and  Greek  no,  and  others  formed  in  analogy  with  them, 
are  written  with  the  termination  ize;  as  generalize,  legalize,  moralize.  See  the  Elementary 
Spc  ling  Book,  Sect.  137,  138.  This  termination  and  ism,  never  change  the  accent  of  the 
oris  nal  word. 

Words  directly  from  the  French  priscr,  and  others  from  the  French,  generally  retain  the 
lett<  r  s  ;  as  surprise,  enterprise,  comprise,  devise,  revise,  merchandise. 

9.  When  verbs  of  two  or  more  syllables,  end  in  a  single  unaccented  consonant,  preceded  by 
asiigle  vowel,  the  fina  consonant  is  not  doubled  in  the  derivatives.  Thus  we  should  write 
app  irelcd,  canceled,  caviling,  caviler,  duelist,  libeled,  libelous,  equaled,  rivaled,  traveler, 
tra\  eling,  quarreling,  &c.    See  a  list  of  Ihese  verbs  in  the  Elementary  Spelling  Book,  Sect.  149 

T  lis  rule,  always  admitted  to  be  just,  has  been  violated,  probably  from  mere  heed'essnesa , 
thei  e  being  no  more  propriety  in  doubling  the  consonant  in  caviling,  libeling,  than  in  limiting, 
pan  oning,  delivering 


058 


(iv  I 

Dull,  skill,  will,  full,  &c.  retain  11  in  all  then  derivatives,  to  prevent  the  inconvenience  of 
exceptions  to  a  rule.  I  see  no  reason  for  omitingone  /  in  dullness,  fullness,  skillful,  willlul, 
which  would  not  requi.e  the  omission  of  one  s  in  blissful,  distressful. 

The  orthography  of  dispatch,  instructor,  visitor,  which  Johnson  altered  without  any  good 
reason,  not  only  in  opposition  to  the  practice  o  ail  that  cluster  of  distinguished  authors  who 
adiuu<  d  the  tM'ginnittg  of  the  last  century,  but  in  contradiction  of  his  own  practice,  in  some  of 
his  wiitiugs,  has  been  restored. 

The  orthography  of  a  tew  words,  the  etymology  of  which  has  been  mistaken,  as  furlow, 
chiinist,  tin  lass.-s,  mold,  ciuar,  redout,  redoutable,  controller,  and  a  few  otiiers,  lias  been  cor 
recttd.    The  usual  orthography  is  palpably  erroneous. 

In  many  words  which  belong  to  no  class,  and  which  are  differently  written  in  our  book*,  I 
have  adopted  the  orthography  which  is  most  simple,  or  most  agreeable  to  the  etymology  oi  to 
the  pronunciation. 

JSTtto  Haven,  July,  1833. 


DIRECTIONS. 

Tuts  mark  (')  always  indicates  the  accented  syllable.  When  it  is  placed  imme  liately  after 
a  vowel,  that  vowel  has  its  first  or  long  sound;  thus,  ha'tred,  me'ter,  bri'er,  ho'ly,  liu'man, 
decry'.  This  sound  is  also  designated  by  a  horizontal  mark  over  the  vowel,  thus:  face,  mete, 
Ice.  cold,  rude,  cry. 

When  the  mark  of  accent  follows  a  consonant,  the  preceding  vowel,  if  single,  and  not  point 
ed.  is  short:  as  in  ab'sent,  defend',  predict',  alledg'e,  convuls'e. 

When  the  accent  is  p'acetl  after,  or  in  a  syllable  that  contains  a  pointed  vowel,  or  a  diph 
thou;:,  that  vowel  or  diphthong  has  its  proper  sound;  as  in  debar',  rembv'e,  adjoin',  anuoy', 
avow',  abound',  rcjoic'e. 

Tne  vowel  e,  at  the  end  of  a  word,  forms  no  syllable  m  any  word  of  English  origin;  but 
when  it  follows  a  Consonant  preceded  by  a  single  vowel,  it  indicates  that  vowel  to  be  long,  as 
in  late,  mete,  note,  tune,  gyve.  When  it  follows  two  or  more  consonants,  the  vowel  of  that 
syllable,  if  unpointed,  isusual'y  short,  as  in  abridge,  lodge. 

A  double  accent  before  ci  and  ti,  indicates  that  these  letters  are  pronounced  like  sh,  and 
close  the  syllable;  thus,  vi"cious,  factitious,  ini"tial,  are  pronounced  vish'ous,  factish'ous, 
iuisVai. 

When  a  word  of  more  syllables  than  one  has  a  pointed  vowel,  and  no  mark  of  accent,  the 
poised  vowel  designates  the  accented  syllable.  Some  words,  mostly  compounds,  have  twc 
sy 'bibles  with  pointed  vowels;  in  which  case  there  is  little  difference  of  accent 

When  of  two  vowels  together,  one  only  is  pointed,  that  has  the  sound  indicated  by  the 
point,  and  the  other  is  mute;  as  course,  bnid,  hoarse,  fruit,  allay,  flow. 

The  digraphs  ee,  ea,  «',  ie,  when  neither  vowel  is  pointed,  have  the  sound  of  e  long—  ai  and 
ay,  the  sound  of  a  long,  ami  oa,  that  of  o  long. 

Letters  in  the  italic  character  are  silent. 

The  letters  gk  are  never  pronounced,  except  in  a  few  words  whtc/l  are  noted  in  their  pi  i  :e. 

In  til)  wools  beginning  with  wh,  the  h  precedes  w  in  pronunciation,  except  in  a  few  wj.ds 
which  axe  noted  in  their  place. 

II  after  r  is  always  silent,  as  in  rhetoric. 

U  and  K  before  v  are  always  silent,  as  in  gnat,  know. 

J  after  I  has  usually  a  liquid  sound,  like  y  in  alien,  pronounced  alyen. 

W  before  r  is  mute,  as  in  wrest,  pronouncei'  rest. 
,    £  final  in  Lbs  terminations  ble,  cle,  dU,Jlet  gle,  Ule,  pie,  tZe,  zle,  is  silent 


M 

The  combinations  e«s4  cr,  ti  before  a  vowel  are  usually  pronounced  as  sh ;  as  in  cetaeeou*, 
gracious,  ingratiate,  pronounced  cetashus,  grashus,  ingrashate.  It  is  said  in  some  English 
books,  That,  in  many  such  words,  cor  t  alone  has  the  sound  ofss,  and  therefore  ingratiate  is 
to  he  pronounced  iugrasheate.  This  is  a  great  mistake  :  it  is  the  combination  of  c  or  t  with 
th  :  following  vowel,  that  forms  the  sound  of  sA  ;  and  the  measure  of  English  verse,  in  all  thf 
best  English  poetry,  requires  this  combination  to  be  thus  pronounced. 

J'he  sound  of  a  before  r,  is  that  of  at;  as  in  snare,  parent,  prepare. 

J  lie  combination  tion  usually  forms  a  single  syllable,  pronounced  shon  or  shun,  as  in  mo 
tion,  conviction. 

The  combination  sion  forms  in  like  manner,  a  single  syllable,  pronounced  shun,  as  in  «on- 
fession.  But  after  a  vowel,  it  is  usually  pronounced  z/iun,  as  in  fusion,  contusion.  A  few 
exceptions  to  these  rules  u»re  noted  in  their  place  ;  as  is  the  pronunciation  of  the  combinations 
sicr,  iter.  f 

Ph  have  the  sound  of/,  as  in  philosophy,  pronounced  filosofy. 

1*  before  5  is  mute,  as  in  psalm,  psaher. 

C,  after  5,  and  before  e,  t,  and  y,  is  usually  silent,  as  in  scene,  science,  Scythian,  pronounced 
seue,  sience,  Sytiiian.     Before  k]  c  is  considered  as  silent,  as  in  sick,  lock. 

Ou  and  oic,  when  o  is  nor.  pointed,  are  diphthongs,  and  pronounced  uniformly,  as  in  sound, 
vow.  ... 

The  diphthongs  oi  and  oy  have  their  proper  sound,  as  in  join,  joy. 

olu.  and  aw  au:  digraphs,  and  have  the  sound  of  broad  a  in  fall. 

Two  accents  between  n  and  gy  or  after  g,  indicate  that  ng  are  pronounced  with  a  close 
articulation,  as  in  fm"ger,  Jon"ger. 

The  pronunciation  of  tile  vowel  in  a  derivative  word  is  usually  the  same  as  in  the  primitive. 
Thus,  tii in  being  pronounced  term,  the  derivatives  are  to  be  pronounced  in  the  same  manner; 
as  feimuess.  ' 

An  asterisk  or  star,  after  the  past  tense  or  participle  of  a  verb  indicates  that  the  final  letter 
d  may  be  and"  usually  is  blended  in  pronunciation  with  the  preceding  syllable,  the  vowel  t 
being  dropped,  and  d  laking  the  sound  of  t.  Thus  abased,  blessed,  are  pronounced  a  hurt, 
blest.  But  in  derivatives,  the  letters  ed  usually  form  a  distinct  syllable.  Thus,  though  blessed  is 
pronounced  blest,  yet  blessedness  must  be  pronounced  in  three  syllables;  confessed  may  be  in 
two  syllables;  but  confessedly  must  be  pronounced  in  four  syllables.  Tills  rule  applies  also 
to  adjectives. 

Words  with  this  mark  f  are  considered  as  unsettled  in  pronunciation. 

U  is  pronounced  yu  in  nature,  capture,  and  some  words  of  similar  formation;  but,  as  no 
two  writers  or  speakers  agree  in  the  words  to  which  this  pronunciation  extends,  no  rule  can 
be  given  on  the  subject.

It  has  been  a  received  opinion  in  this  country  that  Walker's  Dictionary  is  the  standar  I  of 
pronunciation  in  England.  This  is  a  mistake ;  the  English  follow  no  book  whatever ,  the 
only  standard  of  pronunciation  is  the  practice  of  the  higher  classes  of  society. .  Many  of  W  ilk- 
cr's  peculiarities  have  been  condemned  by  all  later  writers  on  orthoepy,  Jones,  Perry  and 
Jameison.  From  observations  which  the  author  of  this  work  made  during  several  month 
residence  in  England,  it  appears  that,  with  the  exception  of  a  very  few  words,  English  well 
bred  people  pronounce  precisely  like  educated  people  in  New  England. 

The  orthography  of  Johnson  in  such  words  as  publicity  logick,  &c.  has  been  out  of  us(  in 
England  for  many  years,  although  still  seen  in  the  dictionaries  of  Walker  and  other  authors. 
It  is  rarely  or  never  seen  in  any  other  respectable  book,  or  in  any  paper  or  periodical.  'The 
letter  u  is  retained  in  ardour,  favour,  honour,  and  some  other  words,  at  least  by  most  writers ; 
but  Valpy,  the  learned  publisher  of  the  Latin  Classics,  has  rejected  this  letter ;  and  in  an  ele- 
gant edition  of  Shakespear,  now  in  the  press,  he  spells  honor,  favor,  error,  ardor,  according  to 
the  orthography  used  in  Washington's  Letters,  in  this  country,  and  the  orthography  of  W  e.b- 
stcr's  Spelling  Book  and  Dictionaries.

THE  END. 


The  estimation  in  which  this  system  is  held,  by  many  gentlemen  of  erudition, 
appears  from  the  following  testimonials  : 
"The  merits  of  Dr.  WEBSTER'S  .American  Dictionary  of  the  English  Language,  are 
very  extensively  acknowledged  by  that  part  of  the  community  for  whose  immediate  use  it  was 
designed.  We  regard  it  as  a  great  improvement  on  all  the  works  which  have  preceded  it. 
The  etymological  department  throws  new  and  striking  light  on  the  history  of  language;  the 
vocabulary  is  enlarged  by  the  addition  of  many  thousand  words,  comprising  the  technical 
words  of  science  and  the  arts;  words  not  found  in  other  dictionaries,  and  many  of  them  the 
words  for  the  precise  meaning  of  which  the  general  reader  is  most  frequently  at  a  loss  ;  the 
or  thography  of  several  classes  of  words,  instead  of  following  cumbrous  and  obsolete  modes  of 
spelling,  is  conformed  to  the  present  usage  of  the  best  writers;  and  the  definitions  have  a 
character  of  discrimination,  copiousness,  perspicuity  and  accuracy,  not  found,  we  believe,  in 
any  other  dictionary  of  the  English  language. 

"The  value  and  success  of  that  work  will  no  doubt  contribute  towards  securing  for  the 
ELEMENTARY  SPELLING  BOOK,  by  the  same  author,  a  currency  with  the  public,  cor- ' 
responding  to  that  which  its  predecessor,  the  American  Spelling  Book,  so  long  possessed.  In 
this  book,  not  only  the  orthography  and  pronunciation,  with  perhaps  here  and  there  a  dis- 
putable exception,  are  conformed  to  the  best  modern  usage ;  but,  in  addition  to  this  improve- 
ment, the  selection  and  classification  of  the  spelling  lessons — the  adaptation  of  the  reading 
lessons  to  the  gradually  expanding  faculties  of  children — and  the  simplicity  of  the  scheme  for 
exhibiting  the  pronunciation  of  words,  render  this  book,  in  our  opinion,  highly  valuable  for 
the  purposes  of  elementary  instruction. 

"  It  seems  desirable  that  the  children  of  this  country  should  be  instructed,  if  possible,  in  one 
form  of  orthography  and  pronunciation  ;  and  it  is  still  more  important  that  they  should  not  be 
taught  an  antiquated  orthography,  rarely  seen  in  the  books  which  they  are  afterwards  to  read. 
"  Dr.  Webster's  Dictionaries  and  Spelling  Books  constitute  a  series  of  books  for  the  purpose 
of  instruction,  which,  we  hope,  will  find  their  way  into  all  our  schools.  We  use  them  our- 
selves, and  we  most  cheerfully  recommend  them  to  the  general  use  of  our  fellow  citizens."

I  am  prepared,  after  a  protracted  and  careful  examination  and  comparison,  to  say,  that  ill

M  Dr.  JV.  Webster. — Sir, — We  have  seen  and  examined  your  American  Dictionary,  and  we 
think  it  unrivaled  by  any  work  of  the  kind  in  the  English  language.     We  also  approve  of 
your  plan  to  publish  a  '  series  of  books  for  systematic  instruction  in  the  English  language.'  " 
WILBUR  FISK,  Principal  of  Wes.  Academy,  Wilbraham. 
WILLIAM  MAGOUN,  Instructor  in  Languages,     do. 
"  The  subscribers,  having  examined  Dr.  Webster's  Dictionaries,  take  pleasure  in  expressing 
their  approbation  of  these  works.    They  are  so  complete  as  to  be  a  substitute  for  all  other 
dictionaries  of  the  language. 

"  THE  ELEMENTARY  SPELLING  BOOK  appears  to  be  constructed  on  an  improved 
plan,  and  to  be  better  adapted  for  the  purpose  of  instructing  youth  than  any  other  work  of  the 
kind  we  have  seen. 

"  We  are  gratified  to  know  that  the  author  has  made  a  series  of  books  for  instructing  our 
youth  in  their  native  language,  in  which  the  modern  orthography  is  adopted  and  rendered 
uniform  in  classes  of  words,  in  which  there  are  many  discrepancies  in  other  dictionaries  and 
elementary  works.  Such  a  series  of  school  books  is  precisely  what  our  country  has  long 
wanted ;  and  if  introduced  into  all  our  seminaries  of  learning,  the  use  of  them  would  super- 
sede the  necessity  of  changes  of  books  of  this  kind — changes  always  expensive  to  parents,  and 
perplexing  both  to  teachers  and  pupils.  We  therefore  recommend  those  valuable  publications 
of  Dr.  Webster  to  the  general  use  of  our  fellow  citizens."
